Dallas, TX Car Shipping: 2026 Costs & Routes

Our team has been in the car shipping industry for a long time. We worked for some of the largest brokers and knew there was a better way to do things.

So we set out to create a company that would be different. We want to walk you through how the process works and we guarantee to match any price you hear from a competitor.

We're a scrappy team that looks forward to earning your business.

See our Vehicle Shipping Tips for more details about how to prepare your vehicle for shipping. In short, you'll want to remove any toll pass (especially important for Dallas-area toll roads like the Dallas North Tollway), fragile items, and interior/exterior accessories that could be damaged in transit. Make sure you have a key available to provide the carrier, and our real-time tracking system will keep you updated throughout the process.

Yes, all shipments to and from Dallas are fully insured. Every carrier we partner with is FMCSA-licensed and required to carry a minimum of $1,000,000 in liability insurance and $100,000 in cargo insurance. We verify that each carrier's insurance is valid and active before your vehicle ships from or arrives in the Dallas area.

The sooner, the better. We recommend scheduling your Dallas pickup at least two weeks in advance, though posting your shipment immediately is ideal—especially in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where high shipping volume allows us to bundle your vehicle with others heading the same direction. Our 95% carrier securement rate means your Assignment-Ready quote gets accepted quickly, so early scheduling maximizes your options and saves time.

We accept all forms of payment. We can arrange credit cards or arrange for you to pay the carrier directly through cash/certified check. We even accept payment via Cash/Zelle/Venmo.

Your shipment with SAKAEM includes up to 100 lbs of personal items or household goods stored in the trunk area or secured below the window line. If your shipment includes ocean transit (Hawaii shipments), your vehicle must be emptied of all items. SAKAEM and your assigned carrier are not responsible for personal items left inside your vehicle. See our Auto Transport Process Article for more details.

A designated (adult) must be present at pickup and delivery. This designated person plays an important role in the shipping process including documenting the state of the vehicle and signing the Bill of Lading, which acts as a receipt of the vehicle's condition.

Enclosed transport costs at least 50% more than open trailers, but it's the right choice for high-value vehicles like classics or custom-painted cars that need protection from Dallas's weather and road debris. Open transport is budget-friendly and works well for standard vehicles making the trip to or from the Dallas area. At Sakaem Logistics, our AI-verified pricing ensures you get transparent quotes for whichever option fits your needs, with all carriers fully insured and FMCSA-licensed.

Yes, we offer door-to-door auto transport service in Dallas. When you book with us, simply provide your preferred pickup and delivery addresses in the Dallas area, and our FMCSA-licensed carrier will pick up and deliver your vehicle directly to those locations. If any transportation restrictions or safety challenges arise, your carrier will work with you to arrange an alternative nearby location, such as a gas station or parking lot. With our AI-verified pricing and real-time tracking, you'll know exactly when your vehicle arrives.

We transport sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, electric vehicles, vans and motorcycles across all 48 continental states + Hawaii. Our services even provide shipment for golf carts, ATVs, or RVs. We can ship vehicles that don't run so long as the vehicle can roll, brake, and steer, and that you can provide the carrier with a key to the vehicle. The only exception is boats, which we do not transport.
